The Finke Desert Race, held annually in Australia's Northern Territory, is one of the world's most challenging off-road events. 

Off-road racing demands suspension that can handle extreme terrain, and Dane from ‪@FOXFACTORY‬ is here to break down the tech behind their world-class dampers. From remote reservoirs to internal and external bypass systems, we explore how Fox designs for the brutal conditions of off-road racing events like the Dakar, Baja 1000 and the Finke Desert Race while keeping the tech scalable for daily drivers.Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inTopics discussed in this SEMA interview also include how heat management, damper size, and semi-active Live Valve systems let vehicles like the Ford Raptor and custom trophy trucks tackle everything from high-speed whoops to precision jumps.Also included is a quick explanation of how the system uses ECU data, including from aftermarket options, including MoTeC, rather than complicating things with their own separate electronics. This means existing sensor data is also used, including steering and throttle inputs, pitch, yaw, and of course, speed.

Can we just introduce you all to one of the biggest GC's we have ever met, the desert dog himself Luke Hayes. We first met this bloke at Kalgoorlie Desert race last year after a hard fought battle against our very own CC57 and knew almost instantly that we had to get this weapon on the show. Luke Hayes is a proper through and through desert racer out of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory, a multi time competitor at the world famous Finke Desert Race and has cracked the top 3 in recent years there, the latest rider to land a spot on the KTM Australia Desert racing team and is slowly becoming one of the biggest names in Australian Desert racing.

Where to begin - this one's a ride; a ride there and back. Not so much a roller coaster ride, but a dusty 460km slog across the Northern Territory dessert on a squealing 2-stoke motocross bike kind of ride. The stifling heat, the choking dust, the fatiguing vibrations, the ear ringing roar of engines - some times in life you've just got to push your feet into those pegs, narrow your eyes, wind back that throttle and move forward unbroken. Abused by a friend of the family as a child, going through an explosive divorce and falling out with his daughter, and then having a blow out with his parents/family business partners, Mitch has had plenty of opportunities to stop showing up; but he hasn't. He shows up. Now Mitch is running his own business, he's chasing around his 2-year-old son who he's raising with the love of his life, he's excited about entering the Finke Desert Race in 2021 (his third), and he's looking to repair those key relationships in his life; because life's too short. If you do the right things for long enough, life tends to work out. Life's fucking tough sometimes, but again, some times in life you've just got to push your feet into those pegs, narrow your eyes, wind back that throttle and move forward unbroken.

In this episode of The Outback Way Podcast, Helen interviews Damien Ryan about the Tatts Finke Desert Race. Damien is the Mayor of Alice Springs, and he talks about how he grew up in the town, and the wonderful outback events that happen in Alice Springs. He shares some background of how the Tatts Finke Desert Race (www.finkedesertrace.com.au) came to be, and some information about this year's race, coming up on the 7th June 2018. Damien also mentions the Parrtjima Light Festival (www.parrtjimaaustralia.com.au) and the Red Centre NATS in September (www.redcentrenats.com.au), and the Masters Games in October (www.alicespringsmastersgames.com.au). There are many reasons the sealing of the Outback Way is important for Alice Springs and for grey nomads and other tourists in Australia, but it's also especially close to Damien's heart due to his father's involvement in other historical road projects.
